A CHRISTMAS CAROL is the best-selling show in Rep history

Monday | Jan. 9, 2017

One of the marquee shows of The Rep's 50th anniversary season has made some history of its own.

A Christmas Carol, which ran from November 30 to December 24, sold more tickets than any other show in Rep history. The production marked the first time that The Rep had presented Charles Dickens' classic in 35 years.

As director Steven Woolf would attest, it was one of the most requested shows during that hiatus. Rep patrons would often ask when The Rep would bring back the show, which it previously presented in 1979, 1980 and 1981.
